While I was familiar with many of the games, there were a
significant number I had never heard of, or had forgotten about completely.
Each game has a suggested grade level (based on United States Elementary
grades)Equipment: What you’ll need to play. Some of the games involve quite a
lot of set up and some require practically nothing. Tactical Problems. This
explains what skills the game focuses on (possession, speed, change in
direction, footwork)Rules: Essentially how to playSafety: What to keep in

Diagram SUPER useful for people who are unfamiliar with the game.

The book is divided into different categories:

Invasion / Territorial
This contains games where players must protect their territory while invading
someone else’s. In some cases this is quite literal (Capture the flag) in
others a bit more figurative (Horse).
One of these is GREAT for EFL situations. Ghost soccer is a great game that
requires a lot of communicating on behalf of the students.

Net / Wall

These are mainly variations on volleyball and badminton, but
there are plenty of other options.

Pursuit / Evade

These are games where students are typically chasing each
other. Two of these should be pretty familiar for EFL teachers: Alphabet
Drawing: for example is similar to freeze tag, but involves the students practicing
their letters! And, any teacher who has taught time will remember, “What time
is it Mr. Wolf”

Striking / Fielding

Students practice catching and throwing. Not a lot of these
are communicative games, but these are great for younger ones to practice motor
skills or just get them moving.

Target / Misc

These contain a lot of variations on dodge ball as well as a
lot of other games.

As pointed out, some of these games are already set up to
have great communicative opportunities. Some of them can be adapted to review
vocabulary or grammar. For others simply learning the rules can be part of the
learning process. Finally, sometimes games can just be used as a reward or to
break up longer lessons.
